New favorite movie

Posted in Personal by mathiou on August 8th, 2007

Last weekend I found the time to watch some movies I postponed seeing for a while. They were “300″, “Casino Royale” and “Star Wars III”. The first one, “300″, I found it rather good, although not as moving as I expected when I saw its first trailer. “Star Wars III”, I think could have been much better. I am not a Star Wars fan (I have not seen the episodes IV-VI), but I had read a little about the story. So I expected something “deeper” or more convincing for Anakin’s turn to the dark side. Still, the film left me the will to see the rest of the episodes.

The movie that really surprised me positively was “Casino Royale“. Partly because things were certainly more down to earth than previous James Bond films. And partly because an important part of the movie was actually devoted to James Bond’s character, to which Daniel Craig fits perfect. Eva Green did very well on her part, too. Finally, I consider its opening scene to be one of the best I’ve seen.
